Snapshot 1.2.490.27 - Closing in on a 1.2 stable release

The focus this week has been on fixing up issues that broke since 1.1, as a 1.2 stable release should be just around the corner. Let us know if we are as close as we think we are, or if there is something your are missing.

For this snapshot, we mainly want to know about anything that broke since 1.1. So if you know of something, then tell us below. New features and other fun stuff will come with 1.3, the first snapshot of which should arrive shortly after 1.2 goes stable.

Yes, I'm happy they did that! The only thing that I see that "broke" since 1.1 is the fact that opening a new tab makes the tab flicker at the end of the tab bar and then goes straight beside your current tab if you have "After Active Tab" for new tabs. This happened a long time ago, then didn't happen since a few snapshots ago, and started happening again since then. It gives the feeling of instability and it would look more professional and stable if it was fixed.

Other than that, I like the fixes they introduced in this snapshot, and I agree with you that they need to remove the code and features in Chromium that they are not using, but wouldn't that take hiring a coder who knows Chromium well enough to help them do it without breaking anything?

weird… got at least 5 confirmation in previous blogpost… so it's affecting some type of OS/type of installations or what then…
(I mean I can't even see settings for bookmarks if I click on the bookmark's menu item… settings for other things work fine)

Thanks for all the work you put into Vivaldi ! Vivaldi is already an awesome browser, and it's tremendous to see that you are so involved into making it the best there can be for everybody. Your dedication to listening to the users and to making it right is blatant and it's the reason why you deserve our trust and praises =)
